Advice please!

Vague question, but "ANY advice on long distance"?
We aren't really legit yet. We've been engaging since *i believe* September 2016.
(When we first met)
I've always proclaimed that I'd never have anything to do with long distance because I feel like I want my partner within arms reach. 
Long story short he's an aHHHmazing guy. 
So I'm here. I have my emotional tears days. I have my days where all of my thoughts are sweet. Fantasize about him daily. And his body and dickle pickle makes me crazy. Though I sort of still despise the long distance, I think it has allowed me to see the extent of emotional and mental comfort he's able to provide. Which made it all the easier to give him my body. Which have only added to our connection. As the sex was great! 
Oh! I have a question!
How do I steer a conversation to get him to make us a legit couple???
I do not want to ask him. 
I'm not even sure if he's even keeping his options open. 
I wouldn't think so, but what do I know. 
(Rhetorical)
Also, give me advice on what to think daily. As I really miss him daily. 
So far I've been taking everything day by day.
